Chapter 79 Who Is She?

• Demitri POV
• As I hold Alissia close, her breath soft and even against my chest, I can tell she’s still wrapped in a haze, not fully here yet. I know this state all too well—subspace. It’s that rare, deep place submissives fall into when they’ve fully let go, releasing control of their body, mind, everything. Her body is pliant against mine, and her fingers, normally restless and defiant, now rest limply over my heart, as if searching for an anchor.
• The room feels strangely still, as if even Blake and Lucas are hesitant to break this spell. They’re watching me, looking as uncertain as I feel. Alissia in this state is… unexpected. We all know her fire, her biting wit, that stubborn resistance that keeps us on our toes. This is different. And I don’t think any of us are sure what to make of it.
